Scratchy Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 would think it was illegal to cut the number plate as your number plate bein cracked is illegal as it is and it being cut might fuck with the police camera's makin it illegal aswell Quote Link to post Share on other sites
greasemonkeyspb Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 yeah i think you need a certain amount of the reflective showing on the pate to get away with it providing you dont mess with the size of the lettering as bloke i work with cut his square plates down to the font on his glanza and was ok never got pulled etc, but i think for mot standards you need certain amount of reflective and right size font id just keep a spare set and temporarily attach for mot etc, that way best of both worlds mate Quote Link to post Share on other sites

lukEp Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 Google it number plate regulations so long as the letters and numbers are the correct size and spaced you need something like 11mm between the edge of the letters and edge of the plate. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

colin2911 Posted January 13, 2011 Share Posted January 13, 2011 thanks for info lukeIf its imported you can get away with 64mm high letters, but its gotta have a 10mm border with the bs number in the bottom corner. Best thing to do is get onto CRAIGS PLATES and order the smallest legal size, I think it is 410mm x 90mm and the bs number says "import" next to it in really small letters. I've been pulled twice and got away with it thro that, and it looks good Quote Link to post Share on other sites
